Default They Shoot Dead Horses, Don't They?


I reported gusts to 30 knots Sunday the 9th. Everyone got excited
because some guy named "Dave" then claimed there was only 5 knots of
wind on the LIS (The ENTIRE LIS!!!). And THEN I posted local weather
from two websites showing wind to 27.6 MPH where I was....slightly more
than 5 knots. I was right and they were wrong...and I proved it. Poor
Thom could only cling to a photo taken earlier. Oh boy.
Now....I still know something these people are too foolish to figure
out. I'm going to prove how dumb they all are....
Okay...I'll do it NOW!

Here's the weather for my area, confirming what I reported:

BUT, here's the weather for Mystic which comfirms, at least to some
degree, that Dave may have found much less wind where he was sailing
(if he was). So I'm actually saving this poor sap! Of course Dave's
sailing report is as bogus as Joe's bluewater dreams.
http://weather.newsday.com/auto/news...sta tename=NA

The main thing here is this...

1) Dave, Joe and Thom are not expereinced enough to know that weather
can be vastly different just a few miles away!
2) They can't even look up a weather chart by area!
3) The idea that I was out sailing in a fresh breeze or more is really
upsetting to them!

Oh Oh Nutsy,

You've done it to yourself, once again!

Take the weather report that you reported and posted. Check the times
and then check the time of your post, with pictures.

At the time you posted that day, with pictures, there was no way you
could have been out there sailing in winds over 6 knots

Before you make a reply check your posting time against the times of
wind velocity on the weather report YOU posted.

The time on weather report and time of your first troll all indicate
Force #2.

You've BUSTED YOURSELF.

Nutsy, you're awful easy. As the saying goes; " Give him enough rope and
he'll tangle himself:^)"

Once again you have proven you're to damn dumb to know when to shut the
hell up. You've shredded your own Troll.

Uh, Thom...get those glasses and look again. After 3 pm it never fell
below 15 MPH in my area and steadily increased. I think you must have
looked at am.
